Caution
Carries risk that is worth understanding before combining. Reduce doses and do not use alone.
Can you take Nitrous Oxide with Tylenol PM?
Tylenol PM contains acetaminophen and diphenhydramine. The most concerning part is Nitrous Oxide with Tylenol PM (Diphenhydramine): together they add disorientation and the risk of falling, which lasts well past the nitrous. Take less of each than usual, and do not use alone. MixSafe rates Nitrous Oxide with Tylenol PM as "Caution" — carries risk that is worth understanding before combining. Reduce doses and do not use alone. Sources: the Drug Facts labels on DailyMed and MixSafe research. Educational information, not medical advice.

Ingredient by ingredient
Nitrous Oxide + Tylenol PM (Diphenhydramine)Caution
Together they add disorientation and the risk of falling, which lasts well past the nitrous. Take less of each than usual, and do not use alone.
Additive dissociation and disorientation, with a raised risk of falling. Diphenhydramine's sedation makes the loss of coordination last well past the nitrous itself.

Nitrous Oxide + Tylenol PM (Acetaminophen)Low risk, no synergy
Neither substance is expected to meaningfully change the other. Both still carry their own individual risks.
No specific interaction is documented. Acetaminophen's main risk is dose-dependent liver injury, so the thing to watch in any combination is total daily intake across all products (roughly 4g/24h) and anything else straining the liver.
